England’s Abby Dow v Scotland: In the 73rd minute, Dow scored a try of near-superhuman levels, fending off the desperate attempts of three Scottish defenders as she blazed her way down the right wing to score in the corner.
France’s Joanna Grisez v England: France’s final try and a shot at the Grand Slam came courtesy of Grisez, who showed her Sevens skills to storm down the left wing, leaving a host of England defenders in her wake. Morgane Bourgeois converted from the touchline to make it a one-point game with one play to go.
Italy’s Aura Muzzo v Scotland: Crisp passing had stretched the Scottish defence when Michela Sillari’s clever dummy opened up space to release Muzzo, who raced clear to finish brilliantly in the corner.
Ireland’s Anna McGann v Italy: Ireland’s final try capped off a McGann hat-trick and an impressive team display in Parma. With the clock in the red, Ireland pounced on a loose ball, and some slick handling saw McGann collect it before racing down the wing to score.
